This is an awesome video! Florida born and raised but had no idea of a lot of the legalities of things you can and can’t do even on your own property! Truly informative and love your style… subscribed!
Excellent information. Another myth worth mentioning. Contrary to popular belief private property does not supercede any regulations regarding hunting. A critter on my land still very much belongs to the state. There are exemptions though. Because of my age, property size and a few other things I can hunt here without a license. But other than that everything else still stands as far as the FWC is concerned. All seasons, limits, method of take etc must still be followed.
Yes I agree on everything you have said. I had a home built in Weeki Wachee Florida and I have been in it now for 1 year im slowly converting over to Solar I’m getting the well on Solar and I’m installing a propane generator I want to unplug from the city. Thank God I’m on a well and septic
I live in the country outside of Ocala. We are in a farming area with privacy but we are 10 minutes from a grocery store and 17 minutes from an emergency room. I am on my own well (with back up hand pump), a food forest and I’m working toward a solar/battery backup. My ideal is on grid with off grid power and water.
Look into something called "land patents" They essentially let you own your land in the same way the government owns it's land. They're not perfect but it's certainly better than just owning a deed to the land.
Thanks for sharing with us & I've Family in Florida so I know how ridiculous & greedy they ate about all things natural & the people need to force those changes! Praying all's well with your Wife & Family! Be blessed! Hallelujah! Praise.....YAH!🙏💖💯📠🐢
Great video. On one of these live in the woods channels a couple had to use their log cabin as storage over permit stuff and they did their due diligence. A comment on the channel had pointed out the violation and that was it for the log cabin. They addressed it with the county and it turned out they were indeed violating something and that's all she wrote.
You are doing exactly what I hope to be doing, in ten more years. I live in Melbourne, but would like to buy a piece of land in north Florida some day.
@4:15 spot on, never sleep on the other forms of capital. certainly equal too, if not greater than now (considering depreciation) are the other forms of capital aside from financial. community, natural resources, etc, spot on.
That’s a pretty area where he is, wish I knew what part of Florida that is. I’m in a Florida and tired of the concrete jungle. I hear what he’s saying about getting sick and bugs
There is a reason why native americans lived mainly around water ways in Florida. I grew up in NW FL and while there is plenty of wild land it is still Wild, plenty of bugs snakes, ect. And yes, you get a full 4 seasons up there I remember several snow and ice storms there, rare, but it does happen.
Cold in Florida? Na, unless the 17°F Christmas day 2022 is cold for you in Levy county Florida. Ya got a few too many skinny pine trees close to the house. Firewood for later?
I was thinking about doing the exact same thing as you did, but I realized, this system doesn't want you to be self sufficient. All they want is your money with all their regulations and permits. It's a f....d up system. I have decided to just do a regular thing and downsize to a very tiny house to save on energy and repair costs and go big with a yard full of fruit trees, herbs and vegetables to support myself and my pets at least with home grown edibles. In my current house i have a very small yard, but I now grow everything in containers, so I can move my fruit trees with me. I am in Florida as well on the East Coast and Ii don't want to move to another state where the regulations are not that strict. You have to pay a high price for living in Florida, it's not all as wonderful as people think it is. I have met many people who moved down here from other states and moved right back after only a year of being here. If I wouldn't hate cold winters so much, I would move myself, but I hate cold.
I bought property in Madison only to find out I can’t live off grid. I plan on selling it and moving out of Florida because it’s too expensive to live here anymore.
So I made out like a bandit 78 months ago I pd$12K Cash for my slum 70380. That's< $155 a month and going lower the longer I stay here , plus I get to sell my place if I choose to leave. 2 minutes away from the Wal Mart neighbor market 2 other grocery stores multiple Bank post library multiple hardware . Do a street view you will see you can live here fish and more. 70380 Land has changed hand here for $1K land that hag all services and placed better than I am.
Dude You must be up in the Panhandle living in an RV. I could see where that could be some serious problems. I would not want to live out my 22 foot Winnebago (if it ever gets out of the repair shop).
It appears your learning experience is a costly one. Its not that way for everyone and wasn't for me. Its not a good idea to by virgin land. Its wise to by land with a septic system and a well, and better yet a fenced in property. That's important. You put a private property no trespassing sign on all entry gate-way and not even the police can violate your property without an warrent. If a person can find a property with these items in place including power poles for electricity would be likely less costly in the long run, even if you decide against county electrical service it would help to have access in a resale of the property. The county will charge you a pretty penny if they have to install power poles and lines to the property for electrical services. If a person can find a property with a trashed out trailer home at a good price that has all the services listed above, it be wise to consider possibly purchasing it and scrap the home and purchase a new one or a used one at auction. In the county I live in, you need permit for well drilling, septic installation, solar array, and a permenant living structure. Didn't need a permit to reroof a building; if I hired a contractor I would have needed a permit. Property owners who do the work themself can avoid permits as long as they follow county regulations. I probably don't live that far from you. If your somewhat fliud and are able to purchase another property and then sell your current property. It takes years of long days and hard work to get a property in the condition that fits your family personal needs, I've put my fruit trees in large potting containers and move em inside from extreme weather damage. Too many tree's and brush on a property I personally don't consider to be good. Its a home for snakes, rodents, tics, vultures. Small pesty ciriters don't like the open ground because they are a birds prey. 3- 5 acers is fine; 10 if you want a lot of elbow room. If you use the right climate control, you can keep the condensation off the inside of your windows during cold snaps. If you buy another property, make sure theirs no heavy dips on the property that would turn into ponds or lakes from heavy rain. You can over do rural living and under do it, keep it simple and have a back up plan.
Putnam county Florida rescinded that policy . It was 90days max. Not no more. Septic codes are easy and so are well permits. Now there is a weird law requiring being connected to the grid. Okay.. no problem. Nothing says you have to use it. As for the rest goes.. welcome to the Florida I grew up in. Just have to get in the right county. Stay out of Taylor County.
Saturated is right. Who lives off the grid in Florida? Holy Mackerel man that's rougher than that Alaska show. Good luck too you dude. I get it though. Thanks for sharing. 👴
What county you are in bcuz...i live in Florida and plenty of country area u do as u like. So be clear about what you are saying. Most country side in Florida people used septic and well. U can live off grid but building ur house will need a permit but its not horrible as this guy is potraying it

Awesome 👌 👏
Hey Dan, what are well drilling prices up there and septic install costs?
I live in the country outside of Ocala. We are in a farming area with privacy but we are 10 minutes from a grocery store and 17 minutes from an emergency room. I am on my own well (with back up hand pump), a food forest and I’m working toward a solar/battery backup. My ideal is on grid with off grid power and water.
That's living. I hope you made it safely through the hurricane.
@@davidwelty9763 good ole slowcala
That’s the living I’m dreaming of
Hi David, what are well drilling prices up there? Im in Pinellas County.
Thank you and GG for all the information you two are putting out there my husband and I truly appreciate it. Blessings
Same to you!
Thanks for the info Eco. That’s why we watch you and GG. We hear the pros and the cons of this awesome journey🎯
In the USA you don’t actually own your property, you rent it from the government
Facts rent is cheaper when you "own it" though
Look into something called "land patents" They essentially let you own your land in the same way the government owns it's land. They're not perfect but it's certainly better than just owning a deed to the land.
As long as there's property tax, you don't own your own land
Put your land in a Trust or LLC.
@@fertile_farmacy1802 Then you have your LLC pay that rent… is that progress?
I Lived in the woods it's not fun. Mosquito s ticks bugs ants. Hot . Bacon & beans.😅

Great information. Its all about theses counties getting there money. Here in Walton county were I'm at It's gotten ridiculous.
Great video with honest information and no BS. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!

Permits cost time and money.

Constructive feedback: It is not necessary to fade in and out on jump cuts, it makes them stand out and distract from the message.

The government needs to collect the tax so you can homestead your own place. It's all about money.
I was thinking about doing the exact same thing as you did, but I realized, this system doesn't want you to be self sufficient. All they want is your money with all their regulations and permits. It's a f....d up system.

Welcome!
We had up to 107 degrees yesterday in Miami.
Regulations and permits aplenty for people. While some want to remove regulations for corporations. 😢
I know it’s off grid, but not for social purposes, you probably can’t get wifi out there
And if a hurricane hits, you gotta come back and rebuild?
Dude You must be up in the Panhandle living in an RV. I could see where that could be some serious problems. I would not want to live out my 22 foot Winnebago (if it ever gets out of the repair shop).

Are yall not connected to any utilities? That would be awesome.
We lived off grid for over 2 years.

Can you tell us where in Florida we can live off grid?

So you leapt before you looked?

Thanks, you too!
Florida is one big HOA, unless you're very wealthy.
We lived in N Fl for years and love the area but wouldn't want to tackle it in a RV. Very realistic explanation.

Thanks for sharing your opinions.
Sounds like you weren't living off grid. Everything you talked about is not off grid living. Just go back to a house bruh
We lived off grid for over two years. We learned a lot and now we are prepared to continue if we had to.
